From the introduction: A long, long time ago the World was in an age of Chaos. In the midst of this chaos, in a little kingdom in the land of Hyrule, a legend was being handed down from generation to generation, the legend of the "Triforce" - a trio of powerful artifacts joined as one. One day, an army of demons attacked this peaceful kingdom and stole the Triforce of Power. This army was led by Ganon, the powerful Prince of Darkness who sought to plunge the World into fear and darkness under his rule. Fearing his wicked rule, Zelda, the princess of Hyrule, split up the Triforce of Wisdom into eight fragments and hid them throughout the realm’s dungeons to save her piece of the Triforce from the clutches of the evil Ganon.
